iPAQ 610 and 910 Series Windows Mobile 6 Pro PDA Phones

November 6, 2007 - Though the iPAQ 111 Classic Pocket PC was released late last week, HP has pushed back each of the remaining iPAQ models the company announced in September 2007. This includes the iPAQ 210 Enterprise PDA, and the iPAQ 610 and 910 Windows Mobile 6 PDA Phones.

Though the release schedule for the iPAQ 210 remains unclear, HP has pushed back the release of the 610c and 910 Series PDA Phones until 2008. The iPAQ 610 and 610c Business Navigators are now scheduled for U.S. release in the first quarter of 2008. The iPAQ 910, a PDA Phone with a QWERTY keyboard, has been delayed until Q2 2008. HP cited supply and production issues when asked about the delayed handhelds.

Mike Hockey, a senior PR Manager for HP, Inc., explained that "[a] small number of production and supply issues discovered in the development of the recently announced HP iPAQ products..." and that "... their availability [will] be later than we had hoped in some regions of the world." This includes the United States.
